WideSpider

This little critter (probably only 16mm across the full leg-span) has been crawling around our bedroom ceiling for the last couple of weeks. I don't mind when they're small and cute, and this one actually looked like it had the wide, forward-curving legs of a crab spider. However on closer inspection it just looks like the classic house spider Tegeneria duellica (as per previous examples found in the house) which confused me. But maybe it's not? That leg splay just doesn't look how I'd expect. Maybe the young ones look like this. What say you all?
